On SubRiemannian Geodesics

Analysis and Applications, 2003
We consider a subRiemannian geometry induced by a step 3 subelliptic partial differential operator in ℝ3. Our main result is the characterization of a canonical submanifold through the origin, all of whose points are connected to the origin by infinitely many (subRiemannian) geodesics.

Geodesic as Limit of Geodesics on PL-Surfaces

2008
We study the problem of convergence of geodesics on PL-surfaces and in particular on subdivision surfaces. More precisely, if a sequence (Tn)n∈N of PL-surfaces converges in distance and in normals to a smooth surface S and if Cn is a geodesic of Tn (i.e.

Hamilton–Jacobi formalism for geodesics and geodesic deviations

Journal of Mathematical Physics, 1989
A formalism of integrating the equations of geodesics and of geodesic deviation is examined based upon the Hamilton–Jacobi equation for geodesics. The latter equation has been extended to the case of geodesic deviation and theorems analogous to Jacobi’s theorem on the complete integral has been proved.

Geodesic subgraphs

Journal of Graph Theory, 1983
AbstractDefine a geodesic subgraph of a graph to be a subgraph H with the property that any geodesic of two points of H is in H. The trivial geodesic subgraphs are the complete graphs Kn' n ≧ 0, and G itself. We characterize all (finite, simple, connected) graphs with only the trivial geodesic subgraphs, and give an algorithm for their construction. We

Geodesics and Distance

1998
We are now ready to move on to the local and global geometry of Riemannian manifolds. The main tool for this will be the important concept of geodesics. These curves will help us define and understand Riemannian manifolds as metric spaces. One is led quickly to two types of “completeness”.

Geodesics with obstacles

1983
In this paper a more general definition of geodesic in \(\mathbb R^n\) with respect to a given obstacle \(U\), namely on a manifold with boundary, is considered and it is shown that a classical result, obtained by Morse and Serre for a manifold without boundary (see [\textit{J.-P. Serre}, Ann. Math. (2) 54, 425--505 (1951; Zbl 0045.26003)]) holds here,
